Platelet Esoteric Testing
A Case Study
Laboratory Approach to Qualitative Platelet Disorders
June 2010
Laboratory platelet testing includes routine tests and esoteric tests. Routine tests include preanalytical, clinical and family bleeding history collection, platelet count, indices, and morphologic examination and platelet function tests. These we have done for this patient. Esoteric tests include flow cytometry, electron micrographic (EM) study, and molecular testing.
